I will take an Arnold please

[c3bodybuilding]

Even though thats not Arnold at his peak (thats a 75 O pic, where he was only 232lbs coming back from filming Stay Hungry. his peak was 74 at 244lbs on stage), he still looks way better than Ronnie. I'd like to see a comparison with Arnold at his best. When Arnold was at his best in 73 and 74 his legs, back and everything else was so much bigger, thicker and better than how he was in Pumping Iron. If he wouldn't have gone down to 210 to do Stay Hungry, he probably would have hit an all time high of 250 for the 75 O and been even more unreal than he ever was before. They just don't build them like that anymore.

Back in the day, BBuilders were required to learn how to suck in their gut as part of their posing routine... not anymore. Those Monkey guts are out of control.

I'm not sure there is a single pro BB'er today that can do the vacuum pose

Ah, the good old days.

When bodybuilding was about a quality, well-proportioned physique... unlike today, where bodybuilding has become about muscle quantity rather than definition, size rather than proportion, and a contest to see who can take the most pharmaceuticals the most often.

thats exactly what i was saying. look at the difference in quads. Arnolds may be smaller but they so much more defined.

and as everyone else said the gut is just rediculas

 

[Lift Chief]

Wow- awesome picture right there.

Seems like most of Ronnie's 50lb weight advantage is in his quads.

Arnold looks so much better.
